I don't understand the argument that Rust is hard to learn, unless you also mean C++ is hard to learn. If you come from C++, I don't believe the borrow checker should be that hard to learn; after all it's kind of just an extension of RAII semantics. It's far more straight concept than forward than C++ templates.
